even the cat's in on it

force clone special operations medic hawkeye says, a clone trooper with a faulty control chip? not to worry sirs, we've got it from here. yes, i'll take arc trooper fives as well. oh no, i insist.

obi!clones aka #a bag of lethal ginger lothcats au, summarized:

obi-wan is captured as a child and sold to be an experiment in creating force sensitive soldiers; he's kept unconscious (becomes a force ghost of sorts later, probably)

the experiment is both successful and disaster; product is excellent but too unpredictable, independent, and expensive to produce also unionized??, but still too valuable to destroy. most are put in stasis, some kept as staff while the obedience problem is worked on (won't matter)

when the GAR goes to production the strange clones become the troopers' trusted, if distant, allies and guardians

when the jedi find the clone army they invite themselves along—not as an army for the republic but for the jedi, in service of the republic—and somehow maybe there's more than the kaminoans knew about? the jedi are troubled, the senate shocked, and kamino might have to elect new leadership to cover some sudden vacancies because palps and dooku did not like that

also: hugs to friend goin thru shit & friends putting up with me falling off the side of the world on a regular basis what would i do w/o you

continuing on the deserter #lord general hot stuff assassin sith!obi train with,

zygerria? kadavo? sith vacation destination!

absolutely would start this adventure in the slave outfit except he has too many scars for that

somehow lost his disguise, shirt, and shoes idk

dooku is not impressed by the queen capturing a 'jedi'

rex needn't feel bad about tormented infinitely sad jedi, only likely frustrated by stupid sith having a good time (decent distraction from The Horrors tho', so there's that)

so many zygerrian guards are dead by the end "rex, wtf happened in the prison" "don't ask, sir. just don't." (rex nevertheless gets his bamf moment, ofc)

ben, mr "i only have social skill by accident or possibly innate instincts but they don't always work", tells padme isn't it hilarious anakin accidentally seduced the queen he clearly has a talent for charming noble ladies! padme may not think this is funny at all actually

continuing the nostalgia train with two ancient d&d characters; and i do mean ancient, so ancient we're talking ye olde swedish localized edition d&d (yes. that is a thing) ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

????—female, high elf, rogue/courtesan; bad ass bitch, your deadly mom friend. tall af if i recall correctly. absolutely not someone anyone would suspect to be stabby.

re-post (with slight touch-ups) of a 2019 disappeared companion piece to deserter, defector, turncoat—original nowhere to be found. did tumblr eat it? am i just incompetent at finding shit on my own blog? idk, a mystery. anyway,

sith!obi-wan, turned jedi ally/asset in the wars. or; sith assassin in disguise, pre-defecting. more in the link above ↑ ◝(´▿`;)◜

side-notes:

probably not actually/legally a republic soldier

or; local allied sith finds the hottest tea

continuing the 'lord general hot stuff assassin' sith!obi defector plot-line concept;

this discovery could change everything, or little to nothing :D (because ben is in fact evil and secrets are fun until it turns out anakin's creeper grandpa is lord sidious, oh dear )

in retrospect, there was something missing from the original version of this—proper colour, and proper short sleeves ofc (what was i thinking??)

once again: a follow-up to musing made in the tags on the first derek portrait (updated!), something about bitchy sunglasses and 3wolves shirts. and yes, silly cringe jokes on main no regrets yet
